Don’t Show the Son

  Chapter 13 Mysterious Assassin

  When saying goodbye to Qin Cong the day before yesterday, Qin Cong said that the two would meet again.

  Lin Xiu did not expect that he and Qin Cong would see each other so soon, but the location was a bit strange.

  Clear staff, morgue.

Qin Cong’s corpse was lying upright on a wooden board. After checking by the official secretary of Qing Dynasty, he said: "The time of death was between Youshi and Xushi yesterday. The fatal wound was a sword mark on the neck. The murderer sealed it with a sword. Throat killed him in an instant. Judging from the wound, the murderer should have used weapons like short swords and daggers."

  Qin Cong is dead, dead at home.

  Before entering the room, he told his servants that he should take a good rest and don't disturb him. When the servants of Qin Mansion waited for him to get up the next day, he was found dead in the bedroom.

When the Qin family was furious, they immediately came to the Qing clerk to report the case. As Lin Xiu and Zhao Lingyin who had conflicts with Qin Cong, they were naturally passed on immediately.

  Qing Li Si Langzhong briefly asked them a few words, there is nothing here about Lin Xiu and Zhao Lingyin.

  When Qin Cong died, Lin Xiu and Zhao Lingyin were both at home, and there was an alibi to prove that they had no time or ability to commit crimes.

  Want to sneak into the first-class mansion without knowing it, after killing Qin Cong, then leaving silently, this is not something ordinary people can do.

  Furthermore, after killing Qin Cong, the murderer did not hide his identity.

  She left a few petals on Qin Cong's corpse.

  A Qing official looked at Qin Cong’s corpse, and said solemnly: “A sword seals the throat and petals are left on the corpse. There are no clues at the scene except for the deliberate traces. The woman has acted again...”

  Qing Li Si Lang waved his hand, and said, "Since it is not an ordinary case, let's hand it over to the Department of Extraordinary Surgery to investigate."

  Different Surgery Division is another government office in Central Korea. The Qingli Division is only in charge of general cases. All cases that involve a foreign technique or a stranger are forwarded to the Division for processing.

  Looking at Qin Cong's corpse lying on the board, Lin Xiu pressed his hand on his head without showing a trace. The power in his body did not respond. It seemed that he could not replicate the ability of the dead.

  Returning to the case library, Lin Xiu washed her hands ten times before curiously asking Master Chen: "Uncle Chen, who killed Qin Cong on earth?"

Master Chen picked up the teacup and took a sip, then slowly said, "Is a mysterious assassin. In the past year, many powerful officials have died in her hands. Want her to be wanted vigorously, and being noticed by her can only be considered bad luck for Qin Cong, and can't blame others..."

  Major Chen did not say much about this mysterious assassin. After he left, Lin Xiu began to search in the case library.

This is the place where the Qing lisi case files are stored. All the cases handled by the Qing lisi in the past three years can be found here. It took Lin Xiu more than half an hour to find out the assassin's information in the vast number of files. .

There is not much information about her in the dossier. At present, it is certain that this person is a woman, and the weapon used is a dagger or a short sword. She is good at assassination. The several misses were because the target was secretly protected by a strong person, and it was also those two misses that allowed the court to obtain some information about her.

  Before this, the court knew nothing about her, and everyone who had seen her died under her.

  After reading the information about the unknown assassin, Lin Xiu admired her a little.

Although countless blood was stained in her hands, it was not the treacherous dignitaries who died in her hands, or the horrific crimes committed by Qin Cong, or the extrajudicial lunatics who the court could not deal with. .

  She has a habit of acting, that is, every time she takes a shot, she will leave petals on the scene to show the identity of the murderer, so no innocent people will be implicated.

  After reading her dossier, Lin Xiu couldn't help sighing: "Hero..."

Lin Xiu also wanted to kill a scum like Qin Cong, but he didn't have such strength, so he could only watch Qin Cong be arrogant and domineering.

The    dossier records that this assassin is also a person with different skills, and has a good martial arts cultivation.

Her ability is invisibility. She has awakened at least three times and can enter invisibility at any time. This is not a combat-type ability, but with martial arts, she can become a top assassin. ?

  Lin Xiu used to play King of Glory, and she hated whether the opposite jungler was King Lanling or Akko.

  A game, most of the time you can’t see them, when they show up, that is, when they are killed.

  Later, when Lin Xiu hit Ake into the national costume, she deeply realized how cool the stealth ability is.

  Because she has too many cases, and she is out of sight, the court has always offered her a great reward. It is said that her bounty has reached ten thousand taels, which is a figure that can make ordinary families spend many lives without worrying about food and clothing.

  Not long after, Lin Xiu put the file back to its original place and left the Qingli Division.

  The people in the capital city were well informed. Early in the morning, the Qin family hurried to the Qing official to report the case. The Qing official sent someone to carry Qin Cong's body. Lin Xiu walked on the street, and the people were talking everywhere.

   "Good death, good death, this scum, should have died long ago!"

   "I don't know which hero is acting for the sky, my old money is here to thank him!"

   "So happy, so happy!"

  ...

  Lin Xiu was hurriedly called to Qinglisi in the morning. He didn't have time to eat breakfast. He casually found a breakfast shop, asked for a drawer of buns and a bowl of porridge, and sat on the street to eat.

   People who eat in this place are all ordinary people. Lin Xiu's dress is extraordinary, and sitting in the crowd, it seems a little out of place.

  Even the guests who happily discussed Qin Cong’s death closed their mouths.

  After all, this kind of thing can be said in private, but if someone with a heart hears it and the Qin family gets revenge, no one can afford it.

  But soon, someone discovered something.

   "Isn't this the adult who turned his head for Lao Wang that day?"

  "How is it possible, how can such a person eat here?"

  "It's really that adult. There are not many people who are so handsome. I can't remember it wrong!"

  ...

  Although the people were talking in a low voice, no one dared to go up and talk to Lin Xiu. After all, one was an official and the other was a citizen. They still had some awe and fear in their hearts for these Korean adults.

  Lin Xiu quickly finished her share, and asked the shopkeeper to pack a few drawers, planning to take it back to Qinglisi.

  This morning's case was urgent, and there were many people in Qinglisi who did not have time to have breakfast like him.

  Since I want to go to the Qinglisi frequently in the future, it is necessary to build a good relationship with my colleagues. Today, Lin Xiu, in the Qinglisi, looks like an outsider.

  When Lin Xiu paid the money, a middle-aged man with a strong body, the shopkeeper of the bun shop, shook his head and said, "These buns, even if I ask an adult."

Lin Xiu was taken aback for a moment. Before he could ask any questions, the shopkeeper explained: "The old king has been pitiful for a lifetime. He finally raised his daughter but was killed by the traitor. Adults are the only ones who stand up and speak for them. It's just a few buns, I can't charge adults."

  Lin Xiu didn’t have the habit of eating free food. He insisted on giving money, but the shopkeeper was determined not to accept it. Even some diners tried to persuade him, but Lin Xiu could only give up in the end.

After returning to the Qing dynasty, Lin Xiu sent the steamed buns to the various offices. In the morning, the Qin’s affairs were urgent. Most of the Qing dynasty officials did not have breakfast. They could not leave like Lin Xiu, they could just leave, they could only be hungry. The stomach, the buns that exude a tangy smell, quickly made their throats tremble.

In the case of   , Lin Xiu smiled at the other three colleagues and said, “I bought some steamed buns on the street. If some of you don’t have breakfast, you can make a pad first.”

  The three clerks were hungry and unbearable. Hearing this, they immediately surrounded him. One took a bun and gobbled it up while thanking him.

   "Thank you, thank you..."

   "Master Lin's buns were delivered too timely."

   "I'm still discussing just now, should I take a servant to the street to buy..."

  When the three of them met Lin Xiu before, they all just gestured politely, and they were still somewhat alienated. This ordinary one-drawer steamed bun made the distance between the few people closer.

  A clerk finished eating the steamed buns, wiped his hands, and said to Lin Xiu, “We will pay Master Lin how much these steamed buns cost.”

  Lin Xiu waved her hand and said, "Master Xu is polite. A few drawers of steamed buns are not worth a lot of money."

  The clerk smiled, and said, “Brothers must also settle accounts, otherwise we won’t let Master Lin take them next time.”

Lin Xiu shook her head and said, "It's really not necessary. I didn't spend any money on these steamed buns. They were given by the shopkeeper of the bun shop. The Wang family woman who died the other day was his neighbour. He thanked me for standing on that day. Came out to avenge the woman, but didn't charge me this time."

  Several clerks were taken aback when they heard the words, and once again picked up a steamed bun, Xu Wenxue, after a moment of silence, slowly put down the bun, and slowly said: "So, I am not qualified to eat this bun..."

  Lin Xiu sighed: "I am ashamed. The thief is obviously just a scapegoat. After all, Wang's reputation has been tarnished. I finally failed to repay her innocence."

  Wang was forcibly defiled by Qin Cong and wanted to report to an official, but Qin Cong sent someone to kill him and made it hang himself.

  Later, the Qin family found a thief to commit the crime. In the records of the Qing official, she was willing to trade with Qin Cong, and happened to encounter a thief who robbed her of wealth and sex, and died unexpectedly.

  An innocent girl who died after being wronged was miserable enough, but she was still stigmatized as a prostitute. It was hard for Lin Xiu to imagine how her family would feel.

  At the door of the case library, the officer of the Qing official looked at the half-eaten buns in his hand, and after a moment of silence, he swallowed the remaining half.

  After that, he walked back to the government office and said to one of the government officials, "Preparing to be promoted."
